[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] corkie:
As stated in the title, I have completely ruined my screen by dropping it. It cracked and won't light up at all, however, the phone still makes notification sounds and the notification lights come on, so I'm fairly certain the internals are still intact. I have a square trade warranty I plan on utilizing if I must, however, they informed me that it's required for them to do a factory wipe of the phone when they do repair it. I have a LOT of very important data and pics on the phone though :( Is there anyway I can retrieve them? I tried downloading gnex toolkit and installed the drivers, however, I didn't have USB debugging turned on before the big fall of 2013. :( Is there anyway around this? Pleaseee tell me if so. Would be glad to even donate to anyone that could be of some major assistance here, because those pics and data are crucial to me. I should have done a backup, I know, I know... but hindsight is 20/20 :-/

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VonEsch:
Try putting it into boot loader, then adb backup. For boot loader hold the volume down volume up and power. Should save backup to computer. Lemme know if this works

If you don't have adb you'll need to install the android SDK
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quinny899:
You might be able to get pictures by just plugging it into a PC with drivers. It usually defaults to MTP mode, where you can pull pictures from. Your app data might be lost unfortunately though, unless you can get USB debugging on somehow

Bootloader only loads fast boot doesn't it? However, you could flash a recovery (if you're already unlocked) and boot that, then you could use adb
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VonEsch:
Should be able to backup from boot loader, with adb, I don't believe you need USB debugging on there
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quinny899:
I mean bootloader only has fastboot, not adb, I'm pretty sure
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VonEsch:
Could she fast boot pull? And pull directories?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quinny899:
There isn't a fastboot pull, only flash, -w, wipe and reboot I think

Quinny899 is correct.

My friend I had the exact same problem, for the past few weeks my screen stopped and then it worked and then it didnt and then it stopped finally, sadly I had switched the USB to charge only, been trying for weeks . Here is the solution

MOBOROBO FILE MANAGER

The link is provided by cnet so it is trusted and the publisher is verified by microsoft. I came across it on CNET forums, I had been ignoring links from CNET and focusing on XDA and other known Android Community forums lol

God Bless you my friend.

It is so simple that I am scratching my head for spending so much time on adb and other dev stuff.

I even used the Droid Root tool to do a system pull lol

To the moderators, if this thread could be sticky-ed I think lots of people would appreciate it.

Also if it could to posted across as many forums as possible. I did lots of reading and discovered lots of people have this problem

EDIT: I cannot post links , but the download link is available from cnet.

PS Is it just me or doesnt the name of the software seem like Mojo Jojo from Powerpuff girls haha

Hi guys ,

I was wondering if any one can help me

im having a problem , I connected my phone (Sensation XL) to the computer in school (school computer room) and i didnt know it includes a virus

i didnt pay attention first but when i connected my phone on the computer at home i have an anti virus and it prevented me from opening the files its all actually (2kb) all the folders like music and photos and every thing the phone saves by it self

but on the other hand the phone it self still says 1.02/8 GB is available and the phone it self is working great in fact nothing changed but how can i fix the virus problem ??

if any one can help ill be so thankful :))
[HTC Sensation XL] Dunnymede:
Why don't you try installing an antivirus on your phone? Something like Avast (which I do prefer) or AVG, they are both free on market.
[HTC Sensation XL] Mr. Despair:
Just solve this problem, like you woul on your PC. Install the apps posted above, or mount your phone as USB device and scan it by using your Desktop antivirus Software. Otherwise your AV software the data/file, which cause the problem.

The last chance could be also a factory reset.

So the other day I installed JB 4.2 by Team EOS build #92 w/ KatKernel 80b, and I'm loving it so far. Although I have a couple of minor aesthetic issues.

I can't seem to figure out how to reduce (or edit at all) the number of home screens.

I also can't remove the Google Search bar from the top middle of the home screen.

If anyone knows how to solve either of these, it would be much appreciated :)

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] jjpro45:
Hi all!

I need some help with my battery life. I'm new with android since 4 months and I remember the first time I've got this phone it had an awesome battery life. Unfortunately I'm getting a really poor battery life. My phone drains from it self when I'm not using it. For example when I'm in the University and it's just in my pocket, good signal strength (I've even turned off 3G/LTE, since I don't use a lot of Internet there, just whatsapp) and after a 5 hours it drains about 50 % even without using it! -.-

I've installed battery stats and better battery stats, but I don't quite understand how to find out what is draining my battery in standby :/

I'm using rXTREME ROM v5, but I have to mention that I've already had this battery problems with other ROMs, even with the stock one (rooted).

I always carry with my an Extra battery in case of running out of charge -.-

I've talked to one of the students and he shown me his S3 and he had a lot of reaming battery as me and he even used his phone more than me, even with H+/LTE.

Please, can anybody give me some advice on how to fix this problem :)

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] SotirisBK:
I usually do not have issues with battery like that. I saw some improvements with juice defencer.

Have a look into this search: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=battery+saver&c=apps

Also please go settings->battery and get a screenshot. Also tap on the graph on top to see history details and get us another screenshot.

I think this way someone could help you.

Finally if I were you here is what I would do.

1. Install CWM if not already into your device.

2. wipe cache,dalvik,battery stats, factory defaults (you will lose everything so backup,cloud whatever)

3. reinstall everything in your device from scratch.

You can try to reduce those apps running in background, apps that connects to net frequently and syncronizes like google acct, facebook, mails, samsung acct etc. untick those you dont need. For now its the best battery saving we can do.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] ignatios123:
I use rXTREME v5 and I'm happy with the battery result compared to old roms I use. However you may have different point because we have different way of using our phones.

I'm not sure if will do any difference but you can drain your battery first and wipe battery stats and charge again until its 100% full. They say must charge for 8 hours at first charging.

I was getting some very fast battery drain as well recently, and so having Googled the problem, I've come across several 'solutions', including the one which I think (touch wood) has worked for me so far...

1. Go to settings>more settings>Mobile networks>Network mode and switch it to GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode). This stops the phone looking for a 4G signal and can save the battery a little.

2. Don't use auto brightness, and have it set pretty low (obvious one, this).

3. Uncheck auto-sync and set your accounts (under settings) to manually sync to a time of your choosing,

4. Disable Google Now.

5. Use Juice Defender.

6. Uninstall/Disable/Freeze (if you're rooted) any Samsung Apps - this includes AllShare Play, AllShare Cast, Allshare Service, Group Cast, S Memo, S Planner, S Voice, Samsung Push Service, SamsungAppsUNA and Samsung account. This is the step which I think has made a bit of a difference to my battery.

Good luck!

I know it's "debunked", but I still swear by it.

I presume you're on Pegasus kernel. Give your phone a full charge, then reboot into recovery. Under advanced, wipe battery stats.

Always wipe after a fresh kernel install, although I still wipe after a fresh rom install just for the heck of it.

Hello, Just flashed CM10 after wiping data/factory reset, wipe cache, wtc.. I installed the latest GApps JB-2012121, and my AOSP Keyboard keeps crashing.. Like.. every few seconds.. I read to download another older versions of the GApps.. So I'm trying JB-20121011, and now.. My SD card is all jacked.. Using windows, it shows the correct space available.. but when I try and open it.. There is nothing there. I tried placing a Swype.apk in the SD card root.. but it won't show up on the File Manager..

So, what do? Anyone know where the External SD is using the CM10 File Manager?

Great.. So now I can't even do ANYTHING. I wiped factory data again.. Flashed a JB-20120706 Version of GApps.. and still NOTHING.. I can't get into the OS because it's asking for Google account.. then if I cancel that, it asks for a name.. I can't get around it.. Keyboard will NOT WORK.

Get in download or recovery. Wipe all and flash stock with Odin. You can build back up from there.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TeckEe:
If someone's already answered this, please point me to that specific thread with a valid solution relating to my issue as I could not find it for the past week.

My recently replaced Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 won't send text messages longer then 160 characters when rooted. I am familiar with rooting Samsung devices, but I will admit this is my first time rooting my GS3. Regular messages and picture messages send just fine but anything longer than 160 = Fail. I've tried CM10 and AOKP and always end up with the same issue. I've looked on CyanogenMod's website and found something relating to SMSC so I gave it a try (can't post link due to post restricitons). I've tried all 3 methods listed, including entering it in a HEX PDU format still with no success. All I keep getting is update error. If I refresh the SMSC I get "+7",145 (including the quotations).

Upon searching Google and XDA Forums some more with regards to SMSC, I mostly came across solutions that led to switching out the SIM card temporarily to another phone and trying again. I can't do this for obvious reasons. Other solutions involved trying to enter it in PDU format. I tried this numerous times ranging from "07917140140000F0" to "07917140140000F011" and other sorts specifically for Sprint and still have had no success.

Other methods I've tried to remedy this problem was using 3rd party text messaging apps such as Handcent. This proved unfruitful as well.

Thank you to anyone who can help me in advance. If you need more info, just ask and I will try to respond promptly.

Did you try enabling the sms splitter in the messaging apps settings by any chance?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TeckEe:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dark assassin6856:
Try go SMS they have the option to split large msgs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TeckEe:
I hate to sound picky but I honestly hate 3rd party messaging apps. I was hoping to keep it native since I find its simplicity and features to be a lot more appealing and useful. I also hate advertisements and offers almost as much as the next person so I do my best to avoid the slightest hint for a handout as best as I possibly can.

Thank you for the suggestion though, it does work, I just want to keep it simple instead of looking for a workaround.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dark assassin6856:
No prob go SMS is my favorite so I recommend it to anyone

DUDE! If I could hug you through the screen, I would, so instead I just slapped my screen a high 5 that you should get whenever you read this. THANK YOU!

Your instructions were fairly clear to follow all the way up to the point of creating a flashable zip (I might've overworked my brain reading all night) so instead, I originally just replaced the modified Mms.apk into the ROM and it seemed to work fine after installing it, but after some issues I list later in this post, I decided to figure it out and give it a try. Though I understand what I did, it doesn't explain why I get the errors to begin with. You have honestly helped me more then enough so no need to dwell on that if you don't know.

I do have two minor issues and one major:

When I was sending some test text messages to myself, I realized a 2-part text would send the 1st text almost instantly and the 2nd part minutes later.

When sending a 3-part text, it sends the 2nd part 1st, the 3rd part about a minute later and finally the 1st part about 2 minutes later

I can't send MMS messages anymore but could only receive it.

In regards to MMS, I downloaded the Example.zip you had on your page. I extracted it and created the "app" and "framework" sub folders within the system folder then added the apks to their respected destinations. With the exception of adding some outputs for the ui_print, I generally left the updater-script file alone. Finally, I selected all 3 root folders within the Example folder (data, META-INF and system) right-clicked, selected WINRAR then add to archive. I changed the name to texts and selected ZIP as my archive format. Finally, I added the zip to my sd card along with CM10.0.0 and its compatible gapps. Once in recovery, I did a factory reset and flashed CM10, gapps and texts.zip in that order. Upon testing my messages, I encounter the issues listed previously listed above.

Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
